AI Brand Chart: Cat food, latest edition 2026-w42

5 AI models, 60 buying scenarios, edition 2026-w42, data as of October 17, 2026.

Brand names only: the models saw each option as a brand name, with no product facts, and answered from their own knowledge.

Fast panel: the fast or small current models of each vendor, not the full flagship panel.

Tiers, not strict ranks

How to read this

A position is only the order of the estimates, and arrows show how that order moved since the last edition: brands in one tier cannot be told apart from its leader at 95% confidence, and each rank is an interval. Rails show the conditional pick share (among answers that picked a brand) in shortlists of 4 (chance is 25%).

Changed beyond noise: for this brand alone, the 95% interval of its share change excludes 0. Lineup or panel changes between editions can cause it too, and it is never a rank claim.
